Health minister Zweli Mkhize has denied receiving R6.5m in donations from controversial businessman Edwin Sodi, during his tenure as ANC treasurer-general.

“I wish to categorically state I have never received any funds from Mr Sodi, either personally or through a third party intended for my personal benefit. I can confirm that during my tenure as the ANC treasurer-general, Mr Sodi, just like many other business persons, companies and organisations made donations to the ANC,” Mkhize said in a statement on Friday.

Other names that were flagged included labour and employment minister Thulas Nxesi, ANC treasurer-general Paul Mashatile and deputy ministers Pinky Kekana and Zizi Kodwa. Sodi referred to the ANC leaders mentioned as either “my friend” or “business partner” and admitted that he “generously” donated to the ANC, particularly during the 2014 election campaign.R3m on February 28 2014;“I once again state categorically that the above payments were deposited directly into the ANC’s official bank accounts, I therefore can only assume that the name Zweli Mkhize was used by the donor as a reference, given my capacity at the time as the treasurer-general.

Mkhize said he had also noted a “senseless” statement by the DA that it would report him to parliament because of these donations made to the ANC.

When Donald Trump said African leaders are'shitholes'he meant things like this 😫

Can be true or false...he looks fat on the pic though. He was earning more than now...😂😂😂

Yhaz ngoku sidikiwe into mayenzeke masinikwe 1million sonke kuvele kunyiwe macala square up

Film

I grew up respecting Doctors thinking they are so EDUCATED' and are ppl of HIGH NOBILITY and HUMILITY, but I'm slowly loosing the Respect after all this MYANC Kleptomaniacs from all Ranks, 1st was bandilemasuku HEALTH* DrZweliMkhize and shenanigans

Our leadership is good at denying things that they are alleged to have done behind closed doors.

Mr 10% kick backs think we stupid...makunyiwe.

Denying and denying .....yes innocent till proven guilty.

But Zwelu's name is on the bank statement?

So u won't question why he doesn't appear before Zondo to deny those allegations but put out a letter....our media is really bias

Bank records can clear things up?

Uyaya 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥emlilweni

Let Sodi present evidence as simple as that. Let’s quit all the media sensational bullshit please.

Mr 10%

Toxic WMC Media protecting good corruption...

He must submit an Affidavit to state capture commission then

He must go tell Zondo, he'll probably just say yes yes yes, then let him go

Edwin was all over

It is unfortunate that the money stolen from the public had to be cleaned somewhere and MYANC was used as a laundry for such dirty money because its as corrupt as these looters.

In the history of corrupt anc government no one ever admitted of wrong doing they all deny this bastards

Nomvula denied having 50th Birthday party, all of them they will deny just to protect their images... But inside, they know they ate frozen chicken.

Did he even consult his lawyer before making a statement and denying...or is he just digging his grave proactively

Deny deny deny...

He must get a ride first before denying anything

He looks like a thief

He must appear before ZONDO or apply to cross examine him. Issuing statements is a part or a scheme of him and his media friends to silence the matter

The headline is that he denied but no headline when he was implicated. Media is deeply implicated as well

There really is no such thing as clean politics

I will be very disappointed 😃

Sheba ona Bonne joang ke chelete ya bolotsana, ako ntsipele ntate Mkhize hle

Loool that's like politicians slogan 'deny,deny,deny'

There is so much corruption, lies, dishonesty and criminality in the ANC that I'm beginning to believe that they're all the same.

He will never agree..even zuma still says he did nothing wrong.

Denial is a norm when it comes to MyANC leadership

Maar hy het VET geword!?

Corona Asbestos minister 😂

Who wouldn't deny it?

The problem with DrZweliMkhize, is that his name always pops up whenever kickbacks are mentioned;PRASA_Group lucky Montana mentioned it, even the Pic where his controversial niece was deployed!

Dare!!! Of course he would 😛

I never expected Zweli...he was the last person

You had to twist the headline 🙄
